The Automated Consciousness Security System (AWAS) with a point-to-point technique of measuring journey time and distance for detecting velocity restrict violations is predicted to start pilot testing in June this 12 months, New Straits Instances has reported.
The pilot AWAS challenge is meant to interchange the static digital camera setup presently in use, and the bogus intelligence (AI) geared up system will monitor two routes. The primary is from the Genting Sempah tunnel to the Gombak relaxation cease on the KL-Karak Expressway, and from the Senawang toll plaza to the Simpang Ampat toll plaza in Alor Gajah on the North-South Expressway.
Motorists might be detected at toll plazas in the event that they arrive sooner than the estimated journey time, transport ministry secretary-general Datuk Jana Santhiran Muniayan instructed Berita Harian.
“The system, put in at toll plazas, will file journey time primarily based on distance. For instance, if a driver travelling from Jalan Duta, Kuala Lumpur, to Tanjung Malim, Perak, arrives sooner than the estimated time, their automobile’s licence plate will likely be detected, and a summons will likely be issued routinely,” he stated.
The system, powered by synthetic intelligence, can detect if a driver has stopped at any location to increase their journey time in an try to evade detection. “This implies drivers can’t escape being detected in the event that they exceed the velocity restrict, because the system measures each distance and time,” Jana stated.
The assertion by the transport ministry secretary-general echoes the assertion made by transport minister Anthony Loke in January.
“We don’t need drivers to decelerate simply in entrance of the digital camera, however (decelerate) inside a sure distance. Let’s say between level A and level B, we need to know the way lengthy the driving force takes. If he makes use of much less time than he ought to, it means he’s dashing and will likely be topic to motion,” Loke stated on the time.
An organization has been appointed to conduct the proof-of-concept course of for the system with none monetary influence on the federal government, Jana added.
Two highways – the KL-Karak Expressway and the Menora Tunnel alongside the North-South Expressway north of Ipoh – are the primary to obtain the point-to-point AWAS digital camera system, as these have been recognized as high-risk areas. Velocity digital camera calibration on the Menora Tunnel commenced January 15, and the velocity cameras alongside the freeway close to the tunnel will likely be working in each northbound and southbound instructions.
